Krishna said, "If you are a slave of your desires you will be
a slave of the entire world. But when you make desires your slave the
whole world will be yours."

Embodiments of Love,

Have faith in the indwelling divinity, the atma, which is the basis
of every happiness and joy that you will ever experience in the world. People
are suffering immensely because of their erroneous belief that the joys
of the senses and the delights of worldly objects are real and will last;
but these are only temporary and cannot last. People have not inquired to
find out what is the basis for the joys associated with the sense objects
and all the luxuries of the world.
